So I found a pic of a black Fusion with a black painted grill. I had thought about doing it, and now I'm convinced.

I think the stance of this car looks good too.

That looks awesome!! I just detailed my Black I4 and keep looking at the grill trying to figure out what to do. The chrome is a PITA to get clean and get the water spots off. Where did you get the pic of that car? I want to do mine black.

Looks nice, besides the wheels. Also, they should have painted the foglight holes to match. There is three different shades of black on that thing.

actually the fog light frames can not be painted easily.  my brother bought an extra set for his Focus to get Chromed or Painted and was told by the shop we were to that because of the texture  it won't hold paint well.

I must say I do like that.  I'd bet the grill color matched to any color would be awesome

Ooohhhh, me likey!!

That looks sooo much better than the chrome!

 

[ceiph]

red looks hot too

oh gray!!

either way color matched looks great, my cars black and fords releseing the black grills for 07 so i may just ask how much that would cost me instead of painting mine,

It'd be neat to see that black one as a hopped up unmarked cop car.

[Rut]

I went ahead and did it my self. When the weather is better I post some pics of the result.

 

[bassnutz]

I just bought some black paint to do this. I can't wait to see it when it's done.

What kind of paint did you buy? Is it close the colour of the car?

It's the exact same color as the car. I have a buddy of mine that does autobody work for a living. All he needed was the color code off of the inside of the driverside doorjam. I haven't painted it yet, but when I do, I think I might paint the foglight inserts to match the rest of the car. I want to murder it out.
